Need Automaton Rook Gears and Raw Rook Gems in Nightingale? This walkthrough shows you exactly where to find these metallic robots and what to do when you defeat them to complete Victor's quest.

Alright, so you've picked up the quest from Victor to gather some Automaton Rook Gears and Raw Rook Gems in Nightingale. No worries, it's pretty straightforward once you know where to look. You can actually stay in the Desert Astrolabe realm for this, so no need to hop between worlds just yet.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Head out into the sand dunes of the Desert Astrolabe realm. Keep your eyes peeled for those metallic robots, especially around landmarks, cliffs, and oases. If you've got a spyglass, now's a good time to use it to spot them from a distance.
  2. 2
    When you find a group of these robots, you'll usually see both Pawns and Rooks. The Rooks are the ones you're after – they have those distinctive rounder heads. Don't be afraid to go at them with your pickaxe!
  3. 3
    Once you defeat a Rook, it'll drop a metal heart. Hit that with your pickaxe again. This is where you'll get the materials they were farming, which includes Rook Metal Plates, Rook Wire, the Automaton Rook Raw Gems, and the Mechanical Gears you need.
  4. 4
    Keep in mind that it's a bit of a loot roll. You'll probably need to take down more than five Rooks to get the five Gears and five Raw Gems required to finish the quest. Just keep at it!
  5. 5
    Once you've collected your five Gears and five Raw Gems, head back to Victor to turn them in. This quest is part of a larger chain, leading you towards the Oil quest for Nelly Bly and eventually to the Sun Giant questline, bringing you closer to the endgame and the Watch.
Tips
  • Using a spyglass can really help you spot the Rooks from further away, saving you some time wandering aimlessly.
  • Don't be discouraged if you don't get all the drops immediately. It's common to need to defeat a few Rooks to get the specific materials you need.
  • Remember, this is just one step in a longer questline. Completing it will unlock the next part of your journey in Nightingale.

Completing this quest progresses your overall story and unlocks the next steps in the quest chain, including the Oil quest and eventually the Sun Giant questline.
